| A suit of armour created from the enchanted scales of a once-mighty king of dragons. In his time, titans and lesser dragons struggled with him in vain — but as with all things, even he was eventually cast down and undone. Of his life and deeds, this is all that remains. |
the +9 scales of the Dragon King
Desirability
The scales of the Dragon King[1] are +9 gold dragon scales with an extra helping of willpower. Any character that doesn't care much about EV or spellcasting, or is subject to considerable armour limitations (e.g. ogres and trolls), will find this armour incredibly useful.
While you can get better AC by enchanting a mundane set of GDS, using this artefact saves scrolls of enchant armour for other purposes, and the willpower helps, too.
